I think we’re gonna lose game games anyway if we don’t make smart plays, give a 60 minute effort or get proper direction from our coach. He might have well as sat in the stands with the rest of the fans last night. He did nothing.

Honestly, if the players on the ice don't play there's not much else the guy can do. Some nights the team just doesn't have it. All this jumping to conclusions and changing the lineup is annoying. Give it 10 games and lets see what happens. Meyers doesn't prevent that last night and neither does NAK or whoever you idiots are saying to put in.

They was so HIGH on him after the preseason. ##### I guess some can misjudge talent and actual quality.

they was

Yesterday is gone. They sucked.
Was it just a dud, or was it an early sign of trouble?

How they play tonight is very important toward answering that question.

Carry on dissecting everything.

And please, for the love of Gritty, ignore those who should be ignored. It will make for a much less grumpy day here. Thank you.

Let's Go Flyers!!

Listen, in three games so far we've had two shorthanded goals allowed where Vorobyev was the last man back playing the right half wall/right point position. This isn't an attack on a 21 year old rookie. This is a reflection on Hakstol's lack of attention to detail. Clearly Vorobyev is a forward who has trouble defending, so you might want put a defenseman there with offensive upside because the damn power play is about to expire anyway. Zero need for four forwards and one defender for less than a minute of power play time.

Has Hakstol ever won a coach's challenge? He has monators behind the bench and still can't find the right time to call BS on a play he can rewind and look at over and over if he needs to.

Assuming Elliot's underwear is white. He should have took them off during second intermission and had them handy to put on the end of his stick and wave as a flag. Elliott looked bad but he needed mercy. I wouldn't be surprised if Elliott played tonight, the way Hakstol loves to ride the hot hand.

I miss the days of Peter Laviolette. His timeouts really hit a button with this team. I'm not even sure Hakstol knows timeouts are in the rule books.

I heard a quote by Hak during this pre season about trying to get his system right. He's had most of the same players for two seasons, now heading into season three. He's been here four seasons. If the players don't get the system by now, they never will.

The proof is in the pudding. You’re right, Myers doesn’t change what happened last night but an Unnecessary change, where Folin was directly responsible for bad turnovers that led to goals, when you didn’t need to take out Gudas two games in. Sorry, that’s on Dave Hakstol.

I truly hope not

The time to do that was 3 or 4 years ago. That's how you do a proper and effective rebuild.Toronto will be the team to beat over the next 5 years or so because they did the rebuild right. Burn it down all the way and lay a new foundation. Trying to compete while you are rebuilding leads to years of frustration and mediocrity... My fear is we will be right back at ground zero in 5 years with a new GM.

Yup, it's a process that began when Ed Snider was STILL AROUND (goes to point).

But now that he ISN'T you need to do what's RIGHT.

Sell off bloated contracts for cents on the dollar, add (non premium) prospects as a sweetener and MOVE ON.

yeah baby! lol

I was due for a poorly worded rant, while still getting my point across.

This guy has gone from being made fun of all over the country to being on Conan.

Game 4 and already the Weise of poop is in the lineup.

That'll fix things. Weise on the 3rd line? Color me as unexcited. Weal wasn't any good but then again who was? I'd rather give weal another shot.

No, I think Bill said Weise on 4th; Laughton to 3rd
